'In this collection each author has shown the joyful power of a multi-racial society - a joyful power that can be liberated if we are all outgoing, despite the problems.' Masters sums it up really in these stories by 11 different authors. There's an impressive, challenging blend across many cultures, including the travelling people, and it demands a place on library shelves in any school no matter what the racial mix. Most of the stories should read aloud well too.
